Snapshot

What the business is, and whether it's a good one at a fair price.

AI · written from filings

Operates in film production, distribution and exhibition, with its stated core business being the buying and selling of movie rights. Revenue from operations is essentially zero — FY26 revenue from operations was Rs. 0.26 lakhs on a standalone basis — and the company has reported this business as inactive for several quarters. The reported total income of Rs. 36.90 lakhs in FY26 (down from Rs. 50.61 lakhs in FY25) is driven entirely by 'other income', which the company attributes largely to revaluation of investments at market value under Ind AS, not from any film-related activity. It also holds a 100% subsidiary, BAMA Infotech Private Limited, which contributed a small loss to the consolidated FY26 net profit of Rs. 10.27 lakhs. The standalone balance sheet shows negative other equity of Rs. 77.56 lakhs and consolidated negative other equity of Rs. 267.22 lakhs, indicating accumulated losses. Operating cash flow was negative at Rs. 23.08 lakhs in FY26.
